----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- FAIR WARNING - STORY CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR BALDURS GATE 3 Although the actual story for Snjokorn has changed since, this is a lil story me and strogg came up with for the image. -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-story continues on from the events of BG3) About 5 months and 20 days after the defeat of the elder brain and the start of the effort to restore the city, 2 of the heroes that helped save the city from the threat of the brain meet up once again in a pub in the city, after the events of the game Snjokorn had done all he could to help rebuild the city and then had bought Sourceres sundaries, wanting to spend the rest of his days as a shopkeeper and teacher of the arcane arts and history instead of on the road, he also ended up partnering with a silver dragonborn female and having his first son - shulcis.
His friend - Adrammelek continued his journey as a Paladin after all that could be done for the city was achieved by him, bidding his friend Snjokorn farewell for now and heading back out on the road to help, after the 2 had been through so much together it was impossible they wouldn't meet regularly to catch up, have a few drinks a laugh and a joke, still seeing his friend depart was a saddening sight, but he knew his purpose was helping those in need, and he had his shop to run.
As they met up in the pub again had numerous drinks, caught up, chatted, Snjokorn talked about his new family to his supportive friend, of course as the image suggests, due to Thisobald's potent brew Adrammelek built up a sudden, extremely high tollerance to alcohol, so to even feel a tingle he has to drink a lot, that will explain why he is foaming at the mouth - drinking too quickly (funny fact, this was actually based on a screenshot I took)
Another subject was also brought up - Withers invitation to a party, all of them to meet up again - The 2 had accepted this very quickly and planned to travel together to this party and meet with their former adventurers again, and Snjokorn couldn't hide the fact that he was looking forward to meeting Lae'zel again specifically, his lover from their journey together who he had to let go to fight the war with Vlaaketh for the Githyanki people, in a way this was the right choice though as a Gith and Dragonborn couple wasn't appropriate and Snjokorn wanted to have his own kids someday, he was looking forward to seeing how she was and how the war was going, not that he had any intent to cheat on his wife, very far from it.
This was an image gifted to me by rns9292 of our 2 characters to celebrate finishing our Baldurs gate 3 run together, it was my first ever playthrough of the game and he helped me through it since this was the first Turn based RPG I had ever played, was truely a fun experience and even introduced me to Laurian, which if I had not been I would never have made my character Thalla, AKA the avatar of this page.
I never get tired of this image, no matter how many times I look at it or upload it. I'm just in love with it as much as it's possible to love an artwork, and wouldn't trade such a gift for anything. Thank you to my friend for buying me this, and thank you to the artist for doing a phenomenal job.
